Best Aftermarket seat for daily driving ?

For street use I’d definitely favor seats with adjustability (rather than fixed back buckets). Yeah it’s a 2 seater so there’s no backseat access to worry about, but there is comfort to keep in mind. Most anything aftermarket that’s cheap (i.e not a top brand like Recaro/Sparco/etc.) will be suspect from a safety perspective.

If I were you, I’d be looking for OEM seats from a scrapper. You could consider certain 987/997 seats too if you don’t care about period appropriateness (compatibility depends on the electronic controls so manual adjustment seats are almost always easier to install when mismatching parts). Still standard seats from a 986/996 should be about as cheap as second hand OEM seats get.
